Dwelling itself is always a staying with
things .
Martin Heidegger
The way in which you are and I am, the manner in
which we humans are on the earth,
is dwelling.
Martin Heidegger
“Existential foothold” and “dwelling” are
synonyms.
Christian Norberg-Schulz

NOT ALL STRUCTURES
ARE DWELLINGS
ALL DWELLINGSARE PLACES
Dwelling implies something more than “shelter.” It implies that the spaces where life occurs are places in the true sense of the word. A place is a space which has a distinct character. The place represents architecture’s share in truth. Christian Norberg-Schulz (1979)
‣ Usable?
A place is a place only because it affords meaningful action. We can create structures that we intend to be perceived as places, but it is up to the perceiver to find meaning in those structures that resonate as “place.”
Andrew Hinton (2014)

To be somewhere implies more than location; it involves
primarily identification with the particular character
of the places, paths and domains in question
.

“The Structural Integrity of Meaning Across Contexts”- Jorge Arango
Places are goals or foci where we experience the meaningful events of our existence, but they are also points of departure from which we orient ourselves and take possession of the environment. Place is therefore experienced as an inside. Christian Norberg-Schulz (1975)
